The junk removal service provider in their blog article has some valuable information on electronic waste disposal.
I lost my some good collection of music I had of the ABBA and BTS that I had saved in my desktop which I use to try playing for our kids Robert and Anne. This particular article made me contact the team, so that I know the junk is clearly disposed off rather than some being left behind.
I would like to just go through these. Sure it is sort of light, but gives some soothing to the environment too.
Electronics are never stable in the fast moving world. Each day a new device or appliance better than the last model is being introduced. Some keep on to the one they were using. Some go for the new model. And finds difficulty in placing the old one. The first thing that pops into mind is to remove it off. There are right and wrong methods which can be implemented for the junk removal.
Items that can be Recycled:
Display items like monitors and TV screens
Desktop Computers
Laptop computers and tablets
Computer accessories
Printers and copiers
Telephones and answering machines
Cell phones and pagers
Speakers and home theatre equipments
Camcorders, DVD players and other video devices.
Most cities have a drop-off centre for electronics. A local waste disposal company or the city can help you with the guidelines of electronic waste disposal.
Utilising Drop-off Centres: Landfills can be cleared off 70% of electronics if we properly make use of electronic drop-off sites.
The Three Rs: Hanging on to the old and working appliances would make more of a sense in the long run. Always ask the question, “Do we really need that new electronic gadget?“ before going for the new one.
Dropped-off items: Waste materials from electronics such as mercury, beryllium, lead, and other flame retardant materials are sent to processing facilities to safely remove these and make the unwanted electronics meet a responsible end. This way they are recycled safely so as to not contaminate soil.
